If setting ‘Computer Sleep’ to ‘Never’ in the Energy Saver prefs doesn’t work you probably need to reset the power manager https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295 and reset the PRAM/NVRAM https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204063

I went into system prefs and told the display not to sleep, and told the energy saver to stay awake, but neither change worked...I still had to jiggle the mouse from time to time to be sure it all went correctly. What was I missing? I (obviously) don't really want to have to babysit the system like that in the future when doing this. As always, my thanks in advance! *********************** Bill Spencer in Maryland Mac Mini 2.6 GHz i5/10.11.6 -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
